re: Turning the Core
The finished piece is about 5 inches in diameter and 22 inches long. The final weight is 10.6 pounds. Before turning it was obviously heavier.
There was a bit of vibration when I started the turning. I was a bit cautious. I first turned the ShopSmith on and off to test the set up. I had trimmed the octagon well and most of the vibration was gone with first pass.
